TIGGS Da Author has announced that his debut album is on the way. ‘Blame It On The Youts’ will arrive on 12th March via Alacran Records.
He previews the album today with ‘Fly ‘Em High, a new collab with regular conspirator Nines. It’s another solid offering from the pair, Tiggs kicking things off with a catchy hook before Nines brings in his signature laid-back rap style.
Tiggs says of the track “Myself and Nines have been working together since around 2015. Since then we’ve just been making back to back bangers! We have good chemistry, so it makes everything easier. This song speaks for itself, has a nice vibe and as always, is a little different. We don’t try to recreate. This is one of the pockets we haven’t explored before.”
With Nines adding; “Tiggs is a very special artist. I always enjoy working with him.”
Meanwhile, with the upcoming album said to be very autobiographical, he adds “Listen to this and you’ll be in the brain of this teenager who’s explaining exactly how he feels. Me moving from Tanzania then growing up in south London with no father figure. You just have to learn from your mistakes and teach yourself how to be a man.”
